[quote=Anonymous]This seems very normal for those ages. That the 3 year old would try to make you feel better and that the 9 year old would not know how to make you feel better. My mother at that age would tell me she was sad and depressed and it was a burden that I did not want to carry. Not because I was selfish, but because I knew nothing I did would make her depression go away. However you don't mention that your husband was empathatic. What did he say when the 3 year old told him about your sadness? Did he try to make your day easier?[/quote]
